RRS     stay away from the Fortis ..it suks....fitment issues on the uppers....a big ol gap...do a search on it here.        Wash

Thanks Wash!

[RRS]

Is AP a good option?

Or whats the 308AR MechArmor sort of solution to the rail quandary?

I am liking the MA handle and I don't even own one...YET!

[Tony b]

I just got my ma charging handle and it is pretty sweet rss. There is a group buy window that will let you get it at a discount here.

[RRS]

Saw that and that is the plan, thx man.

My Fortis does just fine, and it's on the AP receiver set... 

It's a great rail, and doesn't suk in the least... 

The rail is in this thread:

two guys Halo82 and Frank have a gap with the Fortis which looks like $hit....     

but you like gappers ...even your jelly dong has a gap,  but your BBQ sauce is pretty damn good!             Wash

Looks like that's the wrong rail on there - for the height difference.  That gap ain't bad... 

AND!!!  I wanna try that sauce!!!

Atlas?....have you seen the elite iron revolution?  Look that bad boy up....

Careful there RSS........don't let him bait you in.

You'll never hear the end of it.

[DNP]

Yeah, but the story ends well. 

[Rsquared]

Why, yes.....it did.

[RRS]

...well now that's confusing.

[DNP]

Readers digest...you'll never find it all anyways. The Armalite pusher (R2) used to (maybe still does?) stumble into his local gun pusher and get sold easily. One day he came home with a sparkling new Barrett MRAD in .338L. Someone (think it was 98) brought the elite iron bipod into the conversation. Being that R2 seemed like he was easy talk into buying anything, I tried for about 2 years to convince him he needed it. "You'll never hear the end of it" is an awfully sugar-coated way of saying that annoying dik won't shut up. Skipping the how's and whys, the brothers on this forum put an end to it and the MRAD wears the sexiest bipod alive.

Stick around here long enough you'll understand. A lot of people come build their rifle get the help they need and leave. Some stick around because we've formed a bond and friendship. Not saying the people who leave are bad but for the most part the people who stay are awesome. We've had meet ups shoots and helped family and friends

Nope. I surprised everybody with it. I kept my mouth shut from the time I ordered, until I picked it up. Because as we all know.....pics or didn't happen.

Now there was PLENTY of ball bustin for the bi-pod though.
